Summary

VANCRAFT LLC "VanCraft" is recalling certain 2014-2023 SWB, LWB, 2023 LWB Pro, 2023-2024 Rover, Rover XL and Alltrek campervans. The reinforcement hardware, mounting hardware, and seat belt anchor bolts in the rear bench seating system may fail under load. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 207, "Seating Systems" and 209, "Seat Belt Assemblies."

Consequence

Hardware failure may prevent the seat and/or seatbelt from adequately restraining an occupant, increasing the risk of injury during a crash.

Remedy

Dealers will install new seat belt anchor hardware, flooring reinforcement, and reinforced bench seat bars, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 19, 2024. Owners may contact Vancraft customer service at 1-888-381-7333.
